Blind Cinema
Watch a film without seeing in this blend of movie-going and collaborative performance.
Overview
Imagine going to the movies, but not actually watching the film. No, you won't be joining the rude masses staring at their phones. Rather, you won't be able to see anything at all. After entering the theatre, you'll be blindfolded, before being sat in front of the screen. You'll also hear the whisperings of a small child describing the film to you, which they're viewing for the first time.
That's Blind Cinema, which makes its first Australian outing at Brisbane Festival, and turns cinema-going into a collaborative performance and an imaginative experience. Watching without watching, you'll contemplate the power of words, as well as their shortcomings, all while enjoying something far, far different to your usual trip to the pictures.
